Story
We are proud to officially announce as Holyhead Lifeboat Crew that we will be raising money to have an Inshore Lifeboat named in the memory of our dedicated Holyhead lifeboatman, Craig Steadman, who died in a road traffic accident in August last year.
We are launching this appeal for £24,000 which will help to buy a lifeboat bearing his name at Barmouth Lifeboat Station.
We are honoured to take on this task, and touched that Barmouth Lifeboat Crew have welcomed our appeal to name their next Inshore Lifeboat in his memory.
Craig, 28, died after the bike he was riding collided with another vehicle on the A55 near Llanfairpwll. Friends and family were left shocked and stunned by his death.
We welcome and thank all who would like to assist us in our target of £24,000 by August 2017. We as crew will be holding our own events to raise money, and encourage anyone including his friends, family, colleagues and local community to hold events, fundraisers & sponsorship to raise money in his memory towards our goal.
Any enquiries can be sent to:
craigsteadmanlifeboatfund@gmail.com
we will do our best to reply to you as soon as possible with any information you may require. Various pieces of kit may be sourced from ourselves to promote fundraising you wish to do.
Please can we ask that you share this far and wide to gain as much support as possible.
We would like to Thank You all for the support we receive to allow us to have this boat in his memory - Our Crewman.
